Food waste and single-use are societal issues in which companies have a role to play. By getting involved with IMS Luxembourg in the Interreg project "FRUGAL" to fight against food waste, and thanks to the "Zero Single Use Transition Kit" of the REUSE project, you have the opportunity to leave a positive footprint.
Whether it's food resources, packaging, or other everyday business items, we aim to help you reduce waste and conserve resources.
We're Sarah and Laura, and we'd be happy to answer any questions you may have on zero waste.
